In this Help Net Security interview, Chris Konrad, Area Vice President of Security, Global Accounts at World Wide Technology, offers advice to CISOs that are increasingly under pressure, discusses using a security maturity model, discusses interesting security technologies, and more.

What advice would you give to a newly appointed CISO that strives to improve security strategy?

No security program can fully eliminate risk or human error, but a mature approach to cybersecurity can mitigate the risks that pose the most danger to organizational objectives and success.

How can an organization leverage a security maturity model to assess its current infosec position?

A security maturity model can help CISOs measure, communicate and visualize improvements and investments in the security program.

There are many different maturity models available to help you measure a security program.
